§ 2-106. Motions generally.

(A) Motions Not Covered. Motions for summary disposition and motions for rehearing are covered in §§ 2‑107 and 2-113 respectively, and are not covered by this rule.

(B) Form. All motions shall be typewritten on 8½‑ by 11‑inch paper. Type shall be 12-point and shall be double‑ or 1½‑spaced.

(C) Content. A motion shall set forth the relief requested and must:

(1) Be agreed to by opposing counsel in the form of a stipulation; or

(2) Be submitted to the court for decision 14 days after it is filed with the Supreme Court Clerk or after service upon opposing counsel, whichever is later. Any response to the motion must be in writing and filed prior to the submission date.

(D) Filing and Service of Motions. An original and one copy of the motion and proof of service shall be filed with the Supreme Court Clerk and a copy shall be served upon the opposing party or the attorney of record. Service and proof of service may be made as provided in Neb. Ct. R. Pldg. §§ 6‑1105(b) and 6-1106(e).
